Palin Backers Use Film to Spread Message Ahead of Iowa Speech

I.e., self-serving propaganda served up in a manner that guarantees that the audience must sit passively and receive the message rather than being able to actively question it. That's something that smacks of liberalism and Big Brother.

You fail to consider reality.

The reality is that most Americans desire a passive message format where information is input visually. The audio is heard but the video is remembered.

A campaign (if there really is one ) is all about delivering a message....... vote for me.

Your charge is as bogus as the one calling Perry a Rino

You would be describing me as I watched the film. The first part championed Palin going after corrupt Republicans in Alaska. This is a good thing and I applaud her for what she did BUT as I watched it, I wondered why they singled out corrupt Republicans. Do they not have corrupt Democrats in Alaska?

Then after several of these "enhancer" scenes that had nothing to do with the film, such as a man with a knife behind his back, another man with a gun behind his back, a man with an arrow through his neck, a car wreck and some other scenes I don't recall, I wondered why they thought they had to play with my mind.

BUT the real kicker came at the end when Brietbart and Levin spent many minutes blasting REPUBLICANS again. They showed photos of McConnell, Boehner and Cantor and inferred they also are corrupt and unethical.

The film portrayed Palin as being perfection while the rest of the Republican party is corrupt and unethical.

Sure people in the Republican party have warts but to portray all the corruption as being Republicans while ignoring the total depravity of Democrats, was an afront to me and I wondered exactly what was the agenda of Bannon and Palin.

Nope. Those people with closed minds won't be there.
